If directed in writing to do so by the authorized enforcement agency, a discharger of storm water runoff from any premises used for commercial or industrial purposes shall provide and operate equipment or devices for the monitoring of storm water runoff to provide for inspection, sampling and flow measurement of each discharge to a waterbody or a storm water drainage system, as specified by the authorized enforcement agency. The authorized enforcement agency may require a discharger to provide and operate such equipment and devices if it is necessary or appropriate for the inspection, sampling and flow measurement of discharges in order to determine whether adverse effects from, or as a result of, such discharges may occur. All such equipment and devices for the inspection, sampling and flow measurement of discharges shall be installed and maintained at the discharger’s expense in accordance with applicable laws, ordinances and regulations.
